did you guys watch and listen to the race or is blind loyalty clouding your writing.
1st rossi was pissed that he actually had to race MM actually threw his hand up and said basically said why are you racing me.
2nd both announcers said he should have been on the throttle and that he looked at MM 2 x (it was 3) while he was slowing down and 1 of the announcers said its very difficult to defend rossi.
3 one angle it looked like rossi actually kicked MM
4 lame excuse i slowed down to break his rhythm
now it was a great battle but call a spade a spade. rossi thinks he shouldn't have to race anybody but JLO but sorry it doesn't work that way.
That was the cheapest and one of the most dangerous things he could have done.
i guess it doesn't matter now though one more race lets see the penalty. IMO black flag. you just don't do that it wasn't a racing incident.
